Chorus:  [use above tab or use chords]

                                     
 I can't hear what you're saying, what you're doing to me

                                                  
-[let it ring]
 Can't you see it would take the jaws of life to pry open your words

 . . . So pry open your words

 I don't want to talk about Elvis, no I don't want to go on pretending

                                                 
 Because it feels like I'm talking to, talking to Charlie Brown's parents

                             
 Feels like I'm talking to, a lonely man without a vision

                                     . . . . /  . . . .
 Stuffed his mouth with indecision

                                          
 Why he's a lonely man without a vision, stuffed his mouth with indecision

                        Ohhhhhhh ---

Chorus:

                                            
 I can't hear what you're saying, what you're doing to me

                                                   
 Can't you see, it would take the jaws of life to pry open your words


   [Well there you go, that's pretty much the basis for the song].
